Peace, fear and birth

Naturally, I have been spending quite a bit of time thinking about the upcoming birth of this babe... and I've identified the things that I consider to be the most important pieces of the pie for me regarding the actual birth process itself.

I do not fear birth, and when I think of giving birth, I am thrilled and in awe of what is to come... I have no anticipation of pain and believe this birth is going to be something exquisite.

I am conscious of how important peace is during labour, and how fear has no place if I want it to be a truly beautiful experience. It's not only important for the mother labouring to have peace within herself, but for those surrounding her to also have peace and no sense of fear of the journey she is undertaking.

Like so many other posts, this is one i have to leave unfinished while i tend to the monkeys... :p
